Libraries & Frameworks & Build Tools & Compilers
A sufficiently advanced build tool is indistinguishable from a compiler.
With libraries, you call them.
With frameworks, they call you.

We can compile our code.
Can we compile our apps?
What if jQuery were a compiler?
None
asm.js
asm.js targets a performant subset of JS.

Virtual DOM
2. The future?
3. One weird trick.
